My new DIY (kinda) rack/incubator/python center :D
Hi guys! I FINALLY finished my small Ball Python 'Center'. Just wanted to share it with you all :)
I started out with a 'wardrobe' frame from IKEA (saw a rack tutorial on YouTube involving IKEA and thought 'genius'!) and shelves.
I am el crazy paranoid about the heat tape, since I've never used it before (and keep reading all these horror stories), so I put up strips of the foil tape as a buffer between the tape and back board. I do realize this is probably overkill :P

Heat tape all installed! Yay!

Shelves all in place!

Tubs all in place! Almost there! Just need to let it get heated up :)

Aaand DONE! Snakes are happy and tubs are juuuust about up to temp :)

If anyone's interested, I'll post the tutorial up for my incubator once it's completely finished (need to install the heat tape I was waiting on) :) thanks for looking, guys!

If it's from an iphone, you can edit the photo, and just rotate =p.

Thank you :) edit them before I insert them? Bc I tried to edit my post on the forum and saw no option to rotate the photo...?

It was $90, and each set of 2 shelves were $25... Unknowingly, we went on 'eat free' weekend, and our entire lunch order was taken off our purchase, so we got one set of shelves 'for free' :)
